Hideyuki Shimonishi, Professor
0 student voices
The Shimonishi Lab researches technologies for building and using digital twins, which are digital copies of the real world, in real time. In communications, the lab covers estimating radio conditions for Beyond 5G/6G, the next-generation communication technology, and optimizing distributed AI edge-cloud systems. In recognition and data, the lab covers identifying many objects and positioning them in 3D, as well as technologies for collecting and generating real-world data with low latency. In applications, the lab researches building and sharing metaverse spaces that enable communication across time and space.

Secure Platform Architecture Lab (Inomata Lab) conducts research on cybersecurity. The lab sets its research themes by reexamining services and devices closely tied to daily life, such as the internet, smartphones, IC cards, QR code payments, and My Number Cards, from the perspective of risk. Its research covers not only technical aspects but also a broad range of perspectives, including organizations, law, and social systems.

Daisuke Furihata, Professor

The Furihata-Miyatake Lab studies applied mathematics in the broad sense in the Computer Experimental Science Division of the D3 Center at The University of Osaka. Much of its research concerns methods and analysis in the numerical analysis of differential equations and partial differential equations. The lab also pursues research on mathematical modeling, stochastic differential equations, and data assimilation. The lab welcomes fourth-year students from the Department of Mathematics in the School of Science, and graduate students from the Graduate School of Information Science and Technology.

The Yasufuku Lab studies community design for architecture, cities, and society using ICT. Using diverse methods including simulation, VR, AI, and descriptive geometry, the lab works on the design, representation, analysis, and evaluation of space. Affiliated with the D3 Center at The University of Osaka, the lab is active as a cooperating field (Architecture and Urban Form Engineering) of the Architectural Engineering section of the Division of Global Architecture, Graduate School of Engineering.

The DX Research Division is engaged in research and practice aimed at bringing innovation to business and society through digital technology. On the research side, it examines the construction of DX strategies and the impact of DX on society and industry, from both theoretical and empirical perspectives. On the practical side, it is responsible for promoting DX at Osaka University, working to improve the quality of education, research, and administration.

Shizuo Akira, Project Professor

The Host Defense Lab studies innate immunity, which acts earliest when pathogens invade and also contributes to inflammation and the establishment of adaptive immunity. The lab has led the world in elucidating how pattern recognition receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) specifically recognize and eliminate pathogens. Currently, the lab focuses on immune regulation through mRNA stability, aiming to clarify immunometabolism and the causes of various immune diseases and to establish new therapies. On the lab's website, it is introduced as Innate Immunity at the Immunology Frontier Research Center and as the Department of Innate Immunity at the Research Institute for Microbial Diseases.

The Immunochemistry Lab studies why the immune system, which evolved to protect the body from infectious diseases, causes abnormalities such as autoimmune diseases. Focusing on molecules that regulate the function of immune cells, the lab examines how they interact with biomolecules and pathogens to modulate immune responses. Methods include genetically modified mice, single-cell analysis, RNA-seq, and analysis of receptor-ligand interactions. It has become clear that neo-self, a new form of autoantigen, plays an important role in the onset of autoimmune diseases.

The Immune Regulation Lab, part of the Immunology Group at the Immunology Frontier Research Center (IFReC), studies how autoimmune diseases arise and the cytokine signaling pathways involved. The discovery of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the elucidation of its receptor signaling pathway revealed that cytokines play an important role in regulating immune cells. When cytokine regulation is disrupted, immune cells can be activated inappropriately, which can lead to autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. The lab aims to deepen the understanding of autoimmune diseases and cytokine signaling pathways, and ultimately to contribute to better medical care.

The Mucosal Immunology Lab studies the mechanisms of intestinal immunity, targeting inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Inflammatory bowel disease is thought to develop when abnormalities of the immune system combine with abnormalities of the intestinal environment. The lab therefore analyzes the immune system, intestinal environmental factors, and the function of the epithelial layer that separates the two. On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Immunoregulation."

Shimon Sakaguchi, Project Professor

The Experimental Immunology Lab studies, with a focus on regulatory T cells, how the immune system avoids reacting to the body's own tissues. When this mechanism breaks down, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis occur. The lab discovered naturally occurring regulatory T cells, which suppress the activity of self-reactive lymphocytes, and has shown experimentally that abnormalities in these cells can cause autoimmune disease. Using SKG mice, which spontaneously develop a disease very similar to rheumatoid arthritis, the lab aims to clarify the process by which genetic abnormalities lead to autoimmune disease.
